Fukinoto
Fukinoto, or Japanese Butterbur to give its English name, is a perennial plant found all through Hokkaido and is a very common sight along the winter/spring boundary as it bursts to life in huge numbers literally as soon as the snow covering it’s hiding spot melts away, meaning it is more often than not the first bit of green that residents of Niseko have seen for many months. However there is something else about these little plants that not a lot of people know – they are delicious.
